“I’ve never dated,” she says. “I’ve always been in relationships.” She explains the cultural difference — she grew up in India. “It’s very different. You like someone, you court each other, you get into a relationship. You’re answerable to each other. Whereas the nonanswerability of dating, my god, I don’t know if I would ever be able to.”
As far as being a “Bollywood” star first and foremost, Priyanka says she doesn’t appreciate that term. “I don’t like the word, because we’re not a miniature Hollywood. We are the Indian film industry, one of the most prolific producers in the world…It’s a ginormous business.”
She continues: “We are artists, people who know our jobs. You can put me in front of a camera anywhere in the world and I’ll hit my mark and say my lines and give the director what he wants.” “I can break out into song and dance as well. I’m kick-ass at that too. That makes me a triple threat, not a stereotype.”
